That's probably the most respectful U-Turn in the show's history. Gives those two a chance. However, if Maxie wanted Mona & Beth to stay, they should have U-Turned Bates & Anthony to "off-set" the U-Turn. FTR, Mona/Beth already have a speedbump

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

Mona & Beth find their speedbump... Play Skittles... Basically bowling but without holes in the balls. They have to get a strike to complete the speedbump. They get directions from a random old man...? LOL.

Joey estimates that Mona & Beth are about 30 minutes ahead... Wow.

Mona & Beth arrive at the bowling speedbump. They have to knock all 10 pins down and they have to alternate.

Caroline & Jennifer are done the detour and they see that the U-Turns have been used. They're off to the pit stop.

Joey & Meghan seem like they're kind of lost.

Back with Mona & Beth. The lane is sort of slanted... On their 16th attempt, they finally knock out all the pins. Joey & Meghan and Mona & Beth both arrive back at the castle at the same time... It's completely dark outside.

Mona & Beth and Joey & Meghan arrive at the haggis place. Mona & Beth get motivated to try to beat Joey & Meghan. Meghan says the intestines feel like wet socks on... This is pretty intense. Mona & Beth taste the haggis... Beth pretends it's so good but she says it's disgusting. Mona & Beth get out of the detour before Joey & Meghan but they see that they've been U-Turned...

Last season's cast had some rather awesome people (as does this one), but I had to disagree with someone that thought last year's penultimate episode was better. Someone goes home tonight. Really F5 to F4 is the new 4th place finish to final 3

You're right I think. At least they didn't use the U-Turn as in the last season

I think the reason they didn't is because the first three teams don't really care who gets eliminated. They'd rather it be Joey and Meghan, but they'd definitely take not having Beth and Mona there either.

Also they might just not have thought of it. Sri Lanka were pretty clever.
